AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
nice glass cup that normally looks clear under ordinary light. under UV light the glass shows a striking green fluorescence.
natural Uranium glass. under (UV) light the glass fluoresces bright green due to the presence of a small amount of Uranium oxide.
The glasses are mouth-blown in a goblet shape, after which hand loops and lines have been engraved on them.
The glasses are made in glass into which a portion of pure crystal was added; this happened often in the 19th century to give the glasses a nicer sheen. Also the purity levels were not as high as they are now.
This can be seen by small air bubbles in the glass.
All glasses differ in weight,
All glasses are in good condition, no cracks or chips.
Given the age, a small sign of use may be present, as well as glass threads, air bubbles and imperfections are completely normal for antique glassware of more than 100 years.
